Every time I become sick of my life and want to kill myself I listen to this, it bring me a sense that I will and do have the potential of creating something, something Beautiful.
I have just watched this film and it absolutely blew me away, the scene when Ricky explains about the bag for the first time is astonishing. The only music that could have gone with that section is that of Thomas Newman, flawless simplistic beauty.
Such a beautiful piece of music. This and Newman's soundtrack to Serenity have such peaceful, engaging moments of emotion that are so hard to describe with words.
@thisphotoisproof Lester Burnham is a depressed middle aged father of one, he lives a dull suburban life which he then decides to turn around after gaining a crush on his daughters friend, he starts weight lifting, smoking pot and befriends the teenager next door who has a severely homophobic father, of whom gets the wrong impression of Lester. In the end, people may not quite be who they seem ...
This soundtrack reminds me so much of Six Feet Under, after all, this film and the Show were directed by Allan Ball... Both of them masterpieces, of course.
When I listen to this. I think of my childhood and I think to myself. Has it been worth it? Living? Has there been ANY meaning in it? Sometimes it's yes. But sometimes. It's no. But then I think to myself when it's no: it will be okay in the end. If it is not okay. It is no the end.
I don't find this to be a sad song. I think it's a song that inflicts calmness and self realisation. I can see this song being played as the world is waking up.
I usually listen to this when I have to make an important decision. It's calming and heartbreaking and just shows the painful beauty of life. I saw this movie ages ago and never understood it,but when I saw it again couple of months ago... Made me think about changing some things in my life.
@giantlabs If it's the remix version I just heard from pandora it is entitled "American Dream" (afterlife mix) by Jakatta. The album is The chillout session. Hope it's the version you've been searching for.
I love how there is so much feeling and I feel some sort of emotional communion that comes out in Thomas Newman's music. He takes the time to pull the listener into the melody and imo really attempts to communicate something to the listener.
Can someone tell me in which movie ( or in which tv serie ) we can hear this song except in american beauty ? I'm searching since yesterday and I can't find, it starts to driving me crazy ! Thank you a lot.
Well said. I agree with you 100% regarding Danny Elfman. his scores for the movies Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Darkman, Pee Wee's Great Adventure, Beetlejuice .....and on & on. I probably have more CDs from him than any other composer. I can't believe I didn't have him high on that short list. thanks for reminding me.
This god of art has found his masterpiece. One of the most haunting and defining portrayals of a tortured soul in recorded history. Brimming with passion.
@avianskies101 Well, I don't disagree with you that Newman deserves an Oscar. But I don't think that should detract from Reznor's award. I think he fully deserved the award he got, but I understand people disagree with me there. I agree with you completely, Thomas deserves an Oscar. But that shouldn't cause people to belittle the accomplishments of another, equally respectable (though very different) artist. But that's just my opinion, I get what you're saying too.
paris nyc and many more and what it mostly makes me think of is all the people is this world there is and so many people to meet and get to no and how the world has come to today its so sad that noone who lives will ever get to see it all i wish i could live forever to meet many many people and see all those wanderful places god bless everyone i pray for the whole world at night
It can make the happy sad and the sad happy. It can make the forgotten remembered and the afraid brave. It can make us love and unite us as one. This. My friends. Is music.
It was over a year ago I posted a comment that seemed to touch many viewers. It was a time in my life I was troubled & uncertain about so many things and very little made any sense. I also didn't know there were so many lost or wayward souls out there. but in your empathy and this.(i have no words appropriate for Newman's music) got me through that time of turmoil. I don't know what waits for me in the near future or for that matter, for any of us. But i vow to "pay it forward" & help another<3
@LoveJaeger Thanks. I do <3 this music. No matter which Thomas Newman film score I listen to - it always gets a reaction from me. good or sad. This composer is just.....well for a man whom is supposed to be very good with words I can't think of an appropriate adjective.
@kamikazemelonman No he's not, hes an amazing person, I dont even know him but I feel I do, the words he writes, come with true wisdom and knowledge, I hope this acknowledged you on him, thanks for reading.
@305991523 My favorite composer is Thomas Newman; "Road To Perdition" is one of the greatest scores in cinema history. But my favorite score is "Lord of the Rings" by Howard Shore. I don't think that score will ever be equaled. Thanks for sharing your favorites; I would heartily agree that those are the best composers ever.
I feel like most people get caught up life and how it moves so fast . It eventually becomes something people never really experience. Many can't even find a meaning behind it. Every moment in life offers something extraordinary, and there is nothing more haunting than the moment you realize that. It's like everything comes alive, and you are overcome with purpose and beauty. Staring into space and simply breathing becomes the most satisfying feeling in the entire world.
"Or my grandmother's hands, and the way her skin seemed like paper" This song always remembers me of that scene, cracks me up everytime I listen to it
this song makes me feel i've been alive before. like, it reminds me of a past life... literally connecting with my soul. anyone get this feeling too? i also imagine myself in a flat high above a city looking down on all the lights and buildings at night.
@faithlesspr try two other Thomas Newman music / scores. from 'Meet Joe Black' three tunes: "That Next Place"
"Whisper of a Thrill" & 'Somebody Else.' from "Road To Perdition" play 'The Main Title Theme.' Many people, other than myself fell the 10 minute play of "That Next Place" is the best musical creation written for any movie score that Newman has ever created. see what you think. i'd be interested to know.
@305991523 you probably have already but if not then listen to the Angels in America score, main titles, ozone, tropopause, ellis island...the man is a genius
@jpjordan90 I have heard all of 'Angels in America' and I agree with you that Newman is a genius.my top four music score / composers are: Thomas Newman - Hans Zimmer - Howard Shore & James Horner. close faves not listed: John Williams - James Newton Howard - Brian Tyler & Alan Silvestri. I'm curious to know what you and the other listeners choose as their faves.
@305991523 James Newton Howard is one of my favourites, a fateful meeting from king kong is one of my top tracks ever, and central park. i think Horner is talented too and Zimmer's CV is packed full of good scores, but Thomas Newman is really just something else. Alexandre Desplat is on the list too
@305991523 I agree; Thomas Newman is the best. Hans Zimmer is a fair second. I personally like Danny Elfman's work a lot, more than that of James Horner (just a lot of big strings). John Williams goes without saying, though somehow he lacks the delicacy and artistry of Newman. This score is so much about atmosphere and empty space, while Williams is the all time king of melody.
James Horner is my all time favorite composer. The man is a fucking legend. I'm not a big John Williams fan, as I feel his scores are a little too loud or overdramatic.
This film is a film about humanity, about the beauty and interconnections of the human psyche between different people. Newman might not be Schubert, but this score is so beautiful, so simply inspiring, so manipulating emotionally. It moves your conscience. To the context of the movie, it is a beautiful accompaniment and it serves to provide the moral of the film, which is to explore the depths of humanity. The music creates the beauty.
sustains, parallel fifths, and harmonic transitions between minor 1 and major 4. 'profound'?- i would say masterfully written, quite pretty- but this is not a masterWORK. Go listen to Schubert, guys.
@chazzithebrit It isnt about being a masterwork, its about the conscience investment by Thomas Newman to bring out the affect in the film so that you not only view it but you feel it aswell
@roachie888 I would agree- Newman writes the score well . He is clearly masterful, using this metaphorical 'language' of semantics perceptively in conjunction with the screenplay- but I disagree with the sentiment (the one evoked within the sincere comments below) that this is 'innately' profound: that assertion vaguely fits conventional definitions (derived from the 19th century) of 'masterworks', such as the symphonies of Beethoven or Mozart. This is accessible, pretty- but not profound
@chazzithebrit Well that is true, and in that respect I totally concure, accessible and pretty are probably very good descriptions for this song, but with the evolution of music and the other art forms it accompanies, couldnt you say that it still can be a masterwork, that it can be profound. I do not remember what part of the film this music accompanies, but with the image and the music joined, dont they become compoundly profound?
@roachie888 i do not think think film is profound, I think its charming, but I also think its pretentious, especially the ending. By modern day definition- maybe it can be 'profound', but only on the most superficial level. Many, many people can write music of this kind.
some reason depressing toned music always cheers me up, I feel a personal connection to this song,. something hits me everytime I hear it, I'm still trying to figure out what makes me get so worked up when I hear it. I often think of my childhood and growing up and how I got where I am.
A masterpiece; it's not only soft as cotton, is like with every single sound at every single second I could feel the music rubbing my cheek passing down through my throat to reach my heart, and then it dances around it. I feel like shedding tears at time while listening, because it reminds me how beautiful thins are on the world and how hard is to see it.
I spend a whole night just listening to this song over and over again. It always makes me sad for some reason. Beautiful and spectacular - a masterpiece =)
@jane567891011 Nope, same song. I could listen to this all day, every day. It's so moving. Got plenty of time for Thomas Newman, top man.

@305991523 James Newton Howard is one of my favourites, a fateful meeting from king kong is one of my top tracks ever, and central park. i think Horner is talented too and Zimmer's CV is packed full of good scores, but Thomas Newman is really just something else. Alexandre Desplat is on the list too

@305991523 I agree; Thomas Newman is the best. Hans Zimmer is a fair second. I personally like Danny Elfman's work a lot, more than that of James Horner (just a lot of big strings). John Williams goes without saying, though somehow he lacks the delicacy and artistry of Newman. This score is so much about atmosphere and empty space, while Williams is the all time king of melody.

@305991523,
James Horner is my all time favorite composer. The man is a fucking legend. I'm not a big John Williams fan, as I feel his scores are a little too loud or overdramatic.

This film is a film about humanity, about the beauty and interconnections of the human psyche between different people. Newman might not be Schubert, but this score is so beautiful, so simply inspiring, so manipulating emotionally. It moves your conscience. To the context of the movie, it is a beautiful accompaniment and it serves to provide the moral of the film, which is to explore the depths of humanity. The music creates the beauty.

sustains, parallel fifths, and harmonic transitions between minor 1 and major 4. 'profound'?- i would say masterfully written, quite pretty- but this is not a masterWORK. Go listen to Schubert, guys.

@chazzithebrit It isnt about being a masterwork, its about the conscience investment by Thomas Newman to bring out the affect in the film so that you not only view it but you feel it aswell

@roachie888 I would agree- Newman writes the score well . He is clearly masterful, using this metaphorical 'language' of semantics perceptively in conjunction with the screenplay- but I disagree with the sentiment (the one evoked within the sincere comments below) that this is 'innately' profound: that assertion vaguely fits conventional definitions (derived from the 19th century) of 'masterworks', such as the symphonies of Beethoven or Mozart. This is accessible, pretty- but not profound

@chazzithebrit Well that is true, and in that respect I totally concure, accessible and pretty are probably very good descriptions for this song, but with the evolution of music and the other art forms it accompanies, couldnt you say that it still can be a masterwork, that it can be profound. I do not remember what part of the film this music accompanies, but with the image and the music joined, dont they become compoundly profound?
roachie888 1 year ago
@roachie888 i do not think think film is profound, I think its charming, but I also think its pretentious, especially the ending. By modern day definition- maybe it can be 'profound', but only on the most superficial level. Many, many people can write music of this kind.

I was trying to figure out what it sounds like, and it sounds incredibly similar to the finding nemo soundtrack.

some reason depressing toned music always cheers me up, I feel a personal connection to this song,. something hits me everytime I hear it, I'm still trying to figure out what makes me get so worked up when I hear it. I often think of my childhood and growing up and how I got where I am.

A masterpiece; it's not only soft as cotton, is like with every single sound at every single second I could feel the music rubbing my cheek passing down through my throat to reach my heart, and then it dances around it. I feel like shedding tears at time while listening, because it reminds me how beautiful thins are on the world and how hard is to see it.
